Small Object in navigator
Hello, no one working with larger files and thinks this is more then a Enhancement? Greetings, Stefan Sturm Hi Stefan, now we are just before the releasing NetBeans 6.5, so now there is not much time for enhancements. Hello, now we are after the 6.5 Release. Hope, now there is time to spend on this :-) Urkman Still no one working on this problem? The editor in these days works in different way. I think it's ok. |
I don't like the Way, the Navaigator displays the Data. Let's say we have this Code: var foo = { fooProp: null, fooFunc: function () { var localObject = {'foo': 1, 'bar': 2}; } }; Then the Navgator displays the following: 1.) 2 times "foo". One time as a variable and one time as an Object. Why we need the same name two times? 2.) It displays the localObject( it's only visible in the fooFunc scope ) on the toplevel. Why? When you work on large files( containing a lot of objects ), the navigator is simply unuseble, because it is totaly overloaded. I will add a screenshot to show this on a small object. Probaly solutions: to 1.) I think this is a bug. Nobody needs a name two times inside the navigator, so it should be fixed. to 2.) Perhaps the display of the objects( which are not in the globle scope ) can be switched off using filters. As an Example open the following file( It is an JavaScript Library ) and see that the navigator is completely overloaded, useless and totaly confusing: http://kevin.vanzonneveld.net/code/php_equivalents/php.namespaced.js I allready mentioned this in another issue: http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=149001 Greetings, Stefan Sturm
